- Scope and content:
Includes three instructional military booklets. One is "Get that Fighter" issued by the Army Air Forces 1 November 1943; it states "This book deals only with the shot you make against a fighter when he is actually coming in at you." One is "If you should be captured these are your rights" issued by the War Department 16 May 1944; it gives advice about what rights prisoners of war have, how to act and stand up for those rights, and to request that a copy of the Geneva Convention Relative to the Treatment of Prisoners of War be shown to them, so they explicitly know their rights. The last is an instructional booklet about how to operate the Caliber .50, M2 Browning Machine Gun.
